CHAPTER 3: BASIC EDITING ■

Source Clip and Timecode Display Now here are some handy tools. The Source Clip

Name menu reveals the name of the clip currently in the Source monitor. The Timecode

display gives you all kinds of different timecode information—anything from the

actual timecode of the thing to duration, time remaining, and so on. If you’re doing a

film project, it will show your key numbers (also known as edge numbers to some film

editors)

Record Sequence and Timecode Display This place on the interface is much like the

Source Clip and Timecode display that we just visited, except that it shows the Sequence

Name and Sequence Timecode feature. Another cool difference is that it can show the

timecode of the source that is currently displayed in the Record monitor below it.

Source Monitor Your source video is displayed here. You can change the interface

where your sources are those cute little pop-up monitors. Most editors don’t like cute

little pop-up monitors. Let’s move on.

Record Monitor This is the place where the video of your edited sequence is displayed.

Source Timeline This is a cool little mini-timeline underneath the Source monitor in

which you can click, drag, or otherwise move to different points in the clip that is

loaded into the Timeline.

Record Timeline This is another one of those mini-timelines in which you can click

and navigate through the sequence that is currently displayed in the Record monitor. It

is not to be confused with the big Timeline below.

Source Monitor Buttons These are specialized buttons under the Source monitor. An

interesting th—ACK! Watch out for that banana! Remember, you have to read every

word of this chapter. Every word. Just seeing if you were skimming. As I was saying,

an interesting thing about the Source Monitor and the Record Monitor buttons is that

when selected, they apply only to what is in that particular monitor. In other words, if

I press a command in the Record Monitor buttons, it doesn’t affect anything going on

in the Source Monitor. We call that being condition-dependent.

Record Monitor Buttons Like the Source Monitor buttons, these buttons affect only

what is in the Source monitor.

Timeline Buttons The Timeline buttons, unlike the other two button sets, are sort of

function-independent. In other words, they have functions that could affect Source,

Record, or both. Not very specific, but this is just a casual walk.

Source Track Panel Here’s an interesting place. The Source Track panel reveals what-

ever tracks were recorded in the clip that is currently loaded in the Source monitor.

These track panels are interesting because each little square can be moved around and

patched. For example, if I want to patch Source Audio track 2 to Record track 1, I can

drag it over to the Record Track panel and voilà! Patched.
